Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I see a dentist?

According to the American Dental Association, one should visit his or her dentist once in every 6 months.

How can I prevent tooth decay?

Tooth decay may be a common problem, but you can prevent it by brushing and flossing regularly. Rinsing with antiseptic mouthwash can also eliminate the cavity-causing bacteria. Along with regular visits to the dentist, you can minimize the likelihood of tooth decay.

What should I look for in a toothbrush?

When choosing a toothbrush, be mindful of the bristle and the toothbrush head’s size. For children or adults who are predisposed to gum irritation or inflammation, it is best to choose a soft-bristled, small-head toothbrush. Toothbrushes with medium to hard bristles tend to cause damage to the gums, contributing to their recession. Furthermore, a small-head toothbrush can easily get around hard-to-reach areas of the mouth without grating on the gums. To get a whiter, healthier teeth, visit the dentist at least every 6 months for dental cleanings.

What toothpaste should I pick?

Choose a toothpaste that contains fluoride. This works great at reducing the likelihood of tooth decay.

How often should I brush my teeth?

Ideally you need to brush your teeth after every meal. If that is not possible, brush once in the morning and right before going to bed. For your after-lunch routine, gargle or swish water, or mouthwash you have any.

How often should I floss?

There are areas between your teeth that your toothbrush cannot reach. For this reason, you need to floss. Keep the cavity-causing bacteria at bay by flossing your teeth once a day.

Can you tell me more about cosmetic dentistry?

If you’re looking to have a more beautiful smile, you might want to consider cosmetic dentistry. The procedures are designed to correct or repair misshapen, broken, or chipped teeth. If you have stubborn stains on your teeth, you also have an option in teeth whitening to restore their pearly white glow. With our cosmetic dentistry options, we can also change the shape and size of your teeth, if you deem them too long or short. If you have noticeable gaps between your teeth, we also have a wide range of solutions to improve your smile.
